An episode of Panel Borders: Alex Fitch concludes his discussion with Dan Abnett, Simon Furman, John Freeman and Gary Erskine about Marvel UK comics in the 1990s
Notes
Press release: "Continuing our month long look at British creators who have written and drawn superhero comics, (in a panel recorded in front of a live audience at the London Science-Fiction Film Festival) Alex Fitch concludes his talk with to a quartet of Marvel UK luminaries who were responsible for some of the best British action / adventure titles in the 1980s and 90s.
Alex discusses with artist Gary Erskine and writers Dan Abnett, Simon Furman and John Freeman, the decline in fortunes of Marvel UK as a publisher in the 1990s - despite their creation of memorable titles such as Knights of Pendragon, Dragon Claws and popular Transformers spin-off title Death’s Head - due to changing market pressures for British comics in newsagents."
